Uganda

We just arrived in Uganda.
At the airport in Nashville, we were told we would have to pay $30 per bag that we checked . Amanda Lawrence, with Visiting Orphans, was still at the airport and she was able to negotiate with United so we didn't have to pay these fees. There were 6 of us, so that saved our team $360. What a blessing. We met up with the other 8 of our team in Amsterdam. It was about midnight in TN time, but we ate breakfast at a McDonalds in the airport that was very expensive. We then flew from Amsterdam to Entebbe, Uganda. I was able to sleep about 5 hours of that flight.
We are staying at the Airport Guest House. Samantha and I are roomies tonight. We have a pet salamander in our room. We just ate pumpkin soup and bread outside with lots of bugs. We are tired and ready to go to bed. It is 10:00 pm here, so 1:00 pm in Tn. Off to bathe and bed for us. Good night.
